[NUMBERICA]

I'm curious about this as well. I literally have no idea what is goal tending and what isn't

If it's coming off the rim (if any part of the basketball is outside and below the rim), then it isn't basket-interference. Refs blew the call and there's no reason they couldn't go back and change it since the ball dies either way. It was rather clear, actually.

Not sure if serious.

I was being very sarcastic. He's stunk imho.

I just love how PG13 has 1 good game and the media is fawning over it and how he is absolutely shredding his Playoff P/Pandemic P or whatever label.

Maybe try stringing a couple of games in a row before anointing him the greatest player ever.

lolno, it was clear but not in the way you’re claiming (maybe you’re thinking about international rules?)​

from the NBA rulebook, #2 applies...​

RULE NO. 11: Basket Interference – Goaltending​

Section I—A Player Shall Not:

1. Touch the ball or the basket ring when the ball is sitting or rolling on the ring and using the basket ring as its lower base or hang on the rim while the ball is passing through.
   1. EXCEPTION: If a player near his own basket has his hand legally in contact with the ball, it is not a violation if his contact with the ball continues after the ball enters the cylinder, or if, in such action, he touches the basket.
2. Touch any ball from within the playing area when it is above the basket ring and within the imaginary cylinder.

Niang's value isnt in his personal stats. He usually does a great job running the offense/defense and making the right play. Tonight was an unusually bad decision making game from him.

Niang is a decent backup. Nothing more. When he's clearly off, just take him out but the Jazz don't have too many valid alternatives in the rotation to take his minutes.

That's the point I'm making. We need more guys to take minutes in this rotation.

Even Royce is nothing more than just a decent rotation guy(like Torrey Craig) and does not justify playing over 30min a night. On the wolves or magic maybe. But not on a championship contending team. Same like Niang, on some nights he is amazing. But on some nights he is off, getting walked over on D, and too scared to shoot a wide open jumper. In that case we need to put him on the bench but again, who is there to take his minutes when that happens?

Don't expect those scrub projects to help much. Namely Oni, who is nothing but disappointment so far. Why even bother wasting time on those scrub projects when we can just go ahead and grab rotation prices straight from free agency and trade market. I mean guys like Payne, Rivers and Craig who are ready to contribute from day one, and probably are already the ceilings for the likes of Hughes, Oni, Morgan, etc?

This is not correct. It was the right call unfortunately as well. Ball was still in the cylinder.

It's that's correct then quin should have challenged. Though maybe he didn't see it.

Key to game 4 is getting Conley back but tightening the rotation. Only play 8 and Rudy needs to play more.

Mike 20, including all non-DM minutes
Donovan 38
Bojan 36
Royce 36
Rudy 38
Clarkson 31
Ingles 31
Favors 10

 

[Jingled]

Rudy's going to have to play 40 minutes a game the rest of this series. We just can't defend at all when he's off the floor.

Definitely expected to lose this game. In fact, went camping last night instead of watching it live. Clippers are a good team. Now reason we should expect to sweep them. Game 4 has always been the pivot game. If we can steal that we are in excellent shape. Even if we don’t we are still on good shape for the rest of the series.

To win game 4 we need Bogey, Donovan, and Ingles or Clarkson to all have good games. Getting some better minutes from Favors and/or Niang would really help as well! I doubt Conley plays. I’m hoping we have him back for game 5.

Where did you go camping?
If you don't want to announce your spot to the whole message then don't, I get it.
PM me if ya want or keep it a secret. I understand. I have my spots that I would never put in a message board.
